Hello
I found a P20 LITE a long a road. The screen was broken, so I changed it. Of course, it's fully locked, FRP and PHONE. Nothing open. if i start it in fastboot mode, I can read PHONE Locked and FRP LOCK in green letters.
When I start it normally, I only have four choices:
- download latest version and recovery
- Wipe data/factory reset
- Reboot
- Shutdown
but nothing run, no Wipe possible and recovery, impossible to connect wifi (getting package info failed). so what can I do to give it life again?
BIG thanks for your ideas.

I need help in recovering a two year old Nexus 4 to usable state.
It went into a loop while in use. Background and symptoms are as follows:
1. OS was OTA updated to Lollipop and was used for several days before problem occured.
2. Now, on powering on, the device remains indefinitely (checked for 30-40 minutes) in the loop displaying 4 coloured shapes going in circles.
3. At first, I tried factory reset, but that failed showing errors like failure to mount /cache etc.
4. Device can be put in fastboot mode (showing product, variant etc.), but always with "locked" state.
5. I used Nexus root toolkit 2.0.4 for attempting recovery. The device is detected in fastboot mode.
6. I tried to unlock bootloader. But it fails to unlock. After selecting unlock option with volume-up and pushing power button, device seems to unlock, but it then boots into the loop similar to the one after power-on. Powering off and putting the device in fastboot mode shows the device state as "locked" again.
7. "Flash stock + unroot" with "soft-bricked/bootloop" option attempts to write to the device but fails at every step with the reason: FAILED (remote: not supported in locked device). This happens 7 times during flash and once during postflash boot. I repeated the exercise with "force-flash mode" and "post-flash factory reset" checked as well, with same failure messages.
8. FYI: I have downloaded the factory image "occam-lrx22c-factory-86c04af6.tgz". It is verified by NRT as OK.
Based on this, I feel that unless the device can be "unlocked", writing to it and recovering it will be difficult.
Can anyone suggest a different set of steps / different recovery program, which may help?
I have read similar threads on this forum, but could not get a complete set of "instructions + working links to tools" from those threads.
Hi there!
I have this Huawei Ascend 540-U01, from Portugal, running (or not running) its original rom. It was working find until it start to run slow. At boot it was blinking a half screen wite square, from time to time it shows "process com.android.play stoped" and some other times "com.android.google stoped". At this point I decided to enter in recovery mode and wipe cache and reset to factory defaults. The problem ware not fixed with this action and I decided to "scan system" from the recovery mode too. It showed lots of files corrupted. Knowing it woldn't solve nothing I tryed again for a reset. Now, the system simply don't boot, but I'm able to reach the recovery mode.
May anyone guide me (or point me) to re-install the stock rom for this device? It was not rooted and I can't boot on normal mode.
Thanks

Hello,
A few days back, when I was using my phone (redmi note 6 pro tulip), the screen suddenly greyed out and started rebooting. Within a minute, the phone went to mi-recovery 3.0.
Now, no matter how I try to reboot the phone (from recovery or by hard buttons) , it boots directly into recovery. Even If I don't do anything, it just cycles through the grey screen, mi logo, and recovery.
More info:
- The phone is completely stock, original MIUI 11 ( android 9.0) firmware from OEM. No root access, no unlocked bootloader or anything else like that. Warranty period is over.
- I can access fastboot mode.
- usb debugging isn't on iirc.
- I tried force shut down by hard buttons and disconnecting the battery, but when rebooting again, nothing changes.
- I tried booting to safe mode but it just shows a black screen and a small safe mode logo in the bottom left.
- mi-recovery 3.0 only allows to wipe all data, which is unfeasible since I have alot of unbacked data that I can't lose.
What can I do now? I've heard that flashing by edl method from an authorized account can save data. And something about a chinese mi pcsuite version. Could anyone provide more information on these? Or any other way to solve the problem?
I want to recover data (photos, videos and docs) and revive my phone.
Thanks in advance

A lot of edl flashing articles on miui forum and mi community are 404 not found now. Please help!!
You solved? I'm with the exactly same problem and I found nothing specifically for this, plus, I tried wipe data already and it still doesn't work.
It maybe be button issue (the volume and power keys have gone bad probably). Remove the buttons from main board and try to boot into system.
I was facing the exact same problem.
And I discovered that it was caused because of the volume button that was kinda stuck, forcing the phone to enter recovery mode every time I tried to reboot it, as mentioned by @HumanBoy23.
After I got the volume buttons unstuck the phone booted normally.
Hello everyone,
So I have a rare issue. I have a OnePlus 6. Today, it started to act really weird. It became so slow that even swiping on home screen with no apps opened takes like a minute to register. I forced power off the device. When powering on again, it seemed like it take around 10 minutes or so to boot. Again, extremely slow. I tried everything from restarting and clearing app cache while in the system itself but no luck.
So, next thing I booted to recovery mode, typed my pin, and cleared system cache and settings. It started to progress until just a tiny bit left before the end of the progress bar, and it got stuck again. Kept like this for a long time. I had to force power off the device again. Now, when I try to power on the device, it launches into Recovery Mode. I tried my pin but it wouldn't decrypt and looks like the device is no longer recognizing it. I tried a couple of "default passwords" but it wouldn't work either. It only gives the option to "Forget Password?" Which should wipe everything off the phone. The only other mode it launches into is Fastboot Mode. I'm using Stock everything and Device State is Locked. I'm not sure where to go from here.
Now my question is, is there any way I can open my device again without losing data? Maybe some way I can pull files using adb in that state then factory reset? Or maybe someway I can bypass Recovery Mode and boot again? I have important data that I can no longer access if the only way to fix this is by wiping everything!
Can anyone help? Much appreciated in advance.
When a phone permanently boots into Recovery mode then either Android OS is corrupted - for whatever reason - or phone's bootloader is misconfigured.
If phone is accessible by either ADB or Fastboot you can try to exit Recovery mode by forcing phone to boot into Android OS ( Normal mode AKA System ) by applying the related ADB and/or Fastboot command.
